I think this would be hilarious.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It's the kind of kayfabe he excels at.
I think house arrest and/or parole makes the most sense here. Politically and in reality. Somehow, he's a first offender. Make him pay to check into a dirty office in NYC once a week, pee in a cup, promise he hasn't spoken to any other known felons since his last parole check in...
Denies him the martyrdom of a few months in jail, as well as the inane drama he would inevitably force out of it.
As much as I would love to see him in jail, as much as he deserves it.... Drug tests and maybe an ankle bracelet would be more realistic.
Yeah, I'm 100% for regular drug checks on him.
I'm curious how effective that would be when he still has a secret service detail.
This whole situation is all kinds of vaudeville.
Secret service's #1 job is the security of their protectee. While it usually comes up regarding children, the SS will turn a blind eye to any of their misdeeds. This is because the very last thing they want is for the protectee to ditch their protection.
As an example, the SS was present (albeit at a slight distance) when the Bush girls were arrested for underage drinking.
If Trump is using drugs, he does so with the SS' awareness. Although that might create a logistical problem with dealers...
I heard Gerald Ford's son talk about being on Spring Break and a fellow breaker came up to him and whispered,"Man, I don't know what you did, but you have some Feds watching everything you do!!"
Why on earth would a prison allow a prisoner to broadcast a speech?
Put him in an orange jump suit already and let him bust rocks with a sledge hammer.
My favorite neolib is the one that is for prison reform but wants rampant prison abuse for people they don’t like.

Republican are the Party of Law and Order!
I wonder what he will look like without someone to plaster on his makeup, glue his hair in place, wipe his ass and dress him?
